peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1short activity Explanation: Dado o contexto, parece-me que a tradução correta seria algo como "revealed short activity in the diachrony of occupation (...)". Isto é algo semelhante a um conceito da geologia, os fósseis de idade. Estes são fósseis pertencentes a espécies que viveram durante um período relativamente curto, e podem ser usados para datar acontecimentos. Neste caso, a frase "o abandono realizado duas ou três gerações após a sua fundação" diz que a ocupação durou pouco tempo, e podemos comparar esta situação ao que referi acima.
